Well, it looks like one of my Pismo battery is dead, or almost dead. I noticed a few weeks ago that if it would sit on the shelf for a few days, the next time I would put it in my Pismo, I would get the last LED blinking, usually indicating that the battery is depleted. Usually, it would recharge and I would get many 45 min. of juice out of it.
Now, I just put it back in and, sure enough, the last LED is blinking. However, Mac OS X 10.2.6 says the battery is charged, although the LED is still blinking. So, it seems it won't recharge anymore. I rebooted in 9 and try Battery Reset 2.0 from Apple, but it said that I didn't need it on my PowerBook model. Any idea on how to reset the battery? If not, I've seen a few places that are selling BatteryTech replacement for my Pismo around $120. Any gotcha or recommendation before I take the plunge?
